Heidi Mumenthaler creates her paintings out of spontaneous gestures, her figures emerge in a scenic self talk in which the artist reflects both usual and unusual encounters. First her distiguished wild brushstrokes and splashes of acrylic paint cover the bare canvas. In breakneck speed colours and structures change and provide the underground for the grotesque figures in clear black contours. Often inspired by theatre plays she invents a unique world of creatures whose monologues continue in the head of the viewer.
Born 1963 in Basel the artist is trained as screenprinter and studies acting at Mozarteum in Salzburg. After her contribution in various theatre productions she focusses on painting since 1992, her works were shown in various solo and group exhibitions in Zürich, Basel, Hamburg, Wien, Berlin. For theatre productions she creates sketches for programmes and worked among others with the directors Barbara Frey, Heike M.Goetze, Gian Manuel Rau und Lars-Ole Walburg.

My Mom is a Wolf, My Dad… by Camilla Graff Junior
A media performance on our inner and outer animals

“My mom is a wolf, my dad…” is a talk about healing processes. What do our inner animals tell us? How can we enter into a dialogue with them? Camilla Graff Junior, aka former punk-rock musician Mona Motel, shares her experience based on autobiographical material, photos, video clips, a collection of plastic animals and family stories.
In collaboration with Paolo Podrescu (media) and Tobias Stål (light and technique).
